Time until the day is dwindling away, faster and faster, closer, and as I continue preparing I feel the deadline approaching rapidly. Which I have no problem with whatsoever!
My nerves although still high, have lessened, and now I truly feel an actual Open Mic is something I can do, without shakiness comparable to an electron(not sure if they actually jitter). Or maybe I will be frozen like a deer in the headlights of oncoming doom, and that will be okay, as this is all part of my plan to become (seemingly)fearless on stage.
When I first started NorthGuitar, I'd nearly pass out I was so tense (breathing became especially rapid and extremely shallow) and my hands shook and moved like they were gloveless in an Alaskan Winter. On top of that, my brain stopped working to any useful degree, and songs I had memorized more so than the alphabet, began to be jumbled(some parts skipped over and others played twice). And to top it off my body would be drenched in terror sweat
After a few times online this lessened greatly, so if my first Open Mic is similar that is fine with me, as long as I can overcome it before 197 days from now. Which I fully intend to do!
